Hi there,
Just bought some live rock from Big Als. I have put the rock in my aquarium and noticed this attached to one piece. Any idea of what it is and if it's a danger to my aquarium? I have a 120 gal FOWLER.

Yup aiptasia and you need to get rid of it. With a FOWLR you have more fish options vs. us reefers. You could look into adding a file fish.
 
Get rid of the rock. I know it sucks since you just bought it but trust me you will be happy you did.
